Fox Affiliates Distance Themselves From Fox News

Reported by Ellen - June 22, 2010 -

Well, well, well. It seems as if some of Fox News' own colleagues are not quite brandishing the connection with pride. In fact, some seem to be making a point of emphasizing that being a Fox (Broadcasting) affiliate station is not the same as being an arm of Fox News. Joe Strupp, at Media Matters, notes that some affiliates make it hard to see the name "Fox" on their logo; another has trouble booking Democratic guests on its local political show; another receives daily complaints about Fox News or Bill O'Reilly.
